Youth-oriented pro-life groups to launch first official ‘national Community Baby Shower day’
In April, the Pro-Life Aggies in College Station, Texas held their bi-annual “Community Baby Shower” by standing outside a local Walmart and asking shoppers to consider purchasing baby items to give to them so they could in turn donate everything to a local pregnancy and parenting resource center. By the end of the weekend, the front seat, back seat, and trunk of a member’s car were completely filled with baby wipes, diapers, formula, and other necessities, and over $700 in cash donations were received, all of which went to a local pregnancy center.
A college group received these donations in one weekend to give to a local pregnancy center. Your group can do it, too!
Every day in America, more than 2,800 preborn babies lose their lives to abortion.
That number should break our hearts and move us to action.
Ending this tragedy requires daily commitment from people like you who refuse to stay silent.
Millions read Live Action News each month — imagine the impact if each of us took a stand for life 365 days a year.
Right now, we’re urgently seeking 500 new Life Defenders (monthly donors) to join us before the end of October. And thanks to a generous $250,000 matching grant, your first monthly gift will be DOUBLED to help save lives and build a culture that protects the preborn.

Together, we can end abortion and create a future where every child is cherished and every mother is supported.
“Aggieland Pregnancy Outreach were recipients of [Pro-Life Aggies] donations and it made all the difference in completing our outreach to parents,” said Victoria Buckwalter, who heads the pregnancy center in College Station. She asks every pro-life group to “please sign up for for a schedule drive or start one in your area!”
Aside from receiving donations outside a local Target or Walmart, groups can also request permission from stores such as H-E-B, Kroger, or K-Mart. Searching for gently used baby and maternity items on Craigslist or contacting local churches to ask parishioners to leave baby items in a box in the church office for donation are also viable options for hosting a Baby Shower.
If you’re looking for something to jump-start your pro-life group this school year, joining in for the National Community Baby Shower Day is the perfect activity.
